Fleetwood Mac News on the Radio

[LindseysCowgirl]

I was just at the gym listening to Big 100.3, an oldies station in the Washington D.C. area. The DJ was introducing "Don't Stop" and mentioned how FM just wrapped up the Say You Will tour and how there is more big news about them.

First, she said that Mick was promoting his new album (ok, we already knew that). She also said that Lindsey is in the studio working on his solo album (come on Lindsey, don't let us down...). AND FINALLY (hope this isn't old news) she said that there are talks of FM doing a summer tour with the Eagles!! :thumbsup:

Well, to me, this is good AND bad. First of all, I would LOOOVVE to see FM on tour again (wouldn't we all?). Secondly, I like the Eagles (not nearly as much as FM, but hey, they're alright). BUT, this means we'll be competing with those crazy Eagles fans for good seats. :eek: Plus, I don't know if I'll ever climb out of the debt I'm in from the SYW tour.

Anyway, just thought I'd pass on that little tidbit.

. AND FINALLY (hope this isn't old news) she said that there are talks of FM doing a summer tour with the Eagles!!
And tickets start at only $999.95, for the lawn seats! :distress:

[skcin]

Yeah, it would be a good show, but they say a lot of things on the radio that turn out to be wrong. I'm betting this is one of them. :nod:

PS - I'm still pissed about when a local station announced that Stevie would be coming to my area on the TISL tour (even gave a date & venue) but it was never made official & never happened. :(

[dissention]

AND FINALLY (hope this isn't old news) she said that there are talks of FM doing a summer tour with the Eagles!! :thumbsup:

If that ever happened, I'd slit my wrists. Talk about the ultimate cash grab. And I can hear a medley of "Eyes of the World" and "Hole In the World" right now. :rolleyes: :laugh:

[golden braid]

I like the Eagles and of course I love FM but haven't they toured enough for right now? I would love to see a Lindsey tour and hear some new music from Lindsey and Stevie instead. And of course the tickets would be a million bucks apiece.

Just a guess..THAT will never happen. :laugh:

[EnchantedSLN]

Haha, my thoughts exactly.

I agree; Fleetwood Mac has toured enough for the time being without putting out more new material. I'd rather see them on hiatus for a little while if it means new group and/or solo albums. Somehow I don't see Lindsey being thrilled about the idea of a nostalgia tour with the Eagles.

Hey, maybe we can ask John if there's any truth to this :cool:.

Thank you for the news. I concur with all of the above :p

c'mon you guys where's your spirit

we could hear rhiannon again and dreams and say you will and go your own way!!!

and the organic speech

and

and

uhhhh!

you know you've toured way too much when your diehard fans say, please don't!

LB start a SOLO album please! :shocked:

[Patti]

Will the tour be billed as The Battle of Stevie's Ex's? :lol:

I don't think The Eagles and FM touring together is even a remote possibility. As everyone has mentioned the tickets would be outrageous. And what are they going to do, have a five hour show? Not gonna happen.

[LilyRose]

Will the tour be billed as The Battle of Stevie's Ex's? :lol:


:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

That's so great. I love it.

Yeah...it'll never happen. I mean, I love the Eagles, but I really don't know why they get compared to Fleetwood Mac so often. They have total different sounds. Has anyone else notice that they always play them back to back on the radio? Does that happen anywhere else or just here?

I would pay $995 for a lawn seat if ONLY Lindsey was to KO Don Henley on stage...That would be priceless.

Tickets for FM/Eagles tour-$995
Amount of blood/plasma donated to pay for ticket-100 liters
Seeing Linds' KO Don Henley & his oversized ego-Priceless!!!

LMAO!:laugh: Exactly...

It's funny because I was just about to post a reply to this

Lindsey rocking out on Hotel California? Maybe.....

saying that there's a greater chance of Lindsey performing "My Heart Will Go On" in full-on drag than there is of him joining Don Henley for "Hotel California".

That happens here a bit - I love it. Probably because El Lay Cali soft rock, and all that. Also, they had the biggest hits at the same time, 75-76, were competing for album of the year together, and also are said to have really defined that sound...not that they sound the same, but again, the LA Cali soft rock stadium excess, big hit, coke head over the top lifestyle stars.....sound??????

Actually I think Lindsey and Henley are pretty cordial with each other. I saw them at the AHI after-party in 2000. They stood next to each other and were talking and laughing together. Plus Lindsey played on Don's Building the Perfect Beast album. I don't know if they're friends per se, but they obviously get along to some extent.

the chances of Linds' playing "Hotel California" with Don Henley are the same as Linds' dumping FM in favor of the rap group N.W.A. and becoming the next Eminiem (After he dyed his hair blonde, retires the white t-shirt, Buys some 'bling-bling' & pimps out Stevie and pops a cap into Micks hind-side!!!)

Oh, I'm sure they are too, but it's soooooo much funnier to imagine that they're not... :laugh: Look at the awesome string of scenarios we all just made up! Priceless.. :p

:nod: Did we ever find out if Stevie did that Fashion Rocks thing? You know, the one that only a radio station announced she'd be doing, despite all the official press releases that never mentioned her?

[stefan]

Oh man what a cheap greedy oldtimer crap that would be. Let's commit mass suicide please!

Lindsey should release his solo thing and tour with it or go on with the next project. But please leave that ridiculous rumour stand as what it hopefully is- a wrong rumour

We're on the same track again, Stefan. Prostitution. Brrrrrrr.

[Dreammms]

Who would play first the Eagles or the Mac? Or would they take turns?

[mondaymornin1]

:shrug: :shrug: :shrug:

You asked the question just as I was going to! Would they flip a coin?

I've seen the Eagles once, and they were awesome, but I'd rather max out my credit cards on Fleetwood Mac alone, thank you! (Of course, as someone has already said, it's gonna take awhile to pay off debts from the SYW tour!)

Bring on a Lindsey solo tour!!! :thumbsup:

[xdreamsunwindx]

I'd pay a decent amount of money to see Fleetwood Mac and Joe Walsh. But Fleetwood Mac and the Eagles? Meh. Not so much. And I agree, I can't see this happening any time soon. This seems like too much of a "nostalgia trip," anyways.

-Kate

[Hawkeye]

There is no way I could possibly see watch the show if the Eagles were to play last. It'd just be too hard to be on such a high from Fleetwood Mac and then having to watch The Eagles afterwards (not that I don't like the Eagles, they just couldn't FOLLOW Fleetwood Mac to me) Now the flip side of that would be great. Getting to see both bands and having The Eagles play first and having the grand finale last. But overall I'd say this probably won't and shouldn't happen.

[HomerMcvie]

Who would play first the Eagles or the Mac? Or would they take turns?
Most tours of this sort(where the 2 acts are of similar drawing power) alternate nights closing the show.

[sparky]

I can't imagine this ever happening. Like everyone says, the tickets would be godawful expensive if it did. I saw the Eagles once a few years ago, thankfully they were comp seats. They were okay, but there isn't a true showman in the group. The musicianship was flawless, the harmonies were great. There just wasn't much to look at. I am a big fan of their music, but I certainly wouldn't pay to see them.

[WelshWitchPMD]

I have yet to see the Eagles and I hope to someday just not with Fleetwood Mac. The ticket prices would be outrageous. I would not want to compete with Eagles fans for good tickets either. <aybe we could work out a deal where they could have a front row spot when the Eagles are on and switch places when the Mac comes on. I am sorry but I don't think that I could go see the Mac if I was not in the first 5 rows.

I don't see this happening but there are rumours of a Mac summer tour next year according to Brett and Taku.

[Regina]

I don't see it happening, either.
Somehow, this pairing would make everything seem all about nostalgia and the olden days. I think when you have more than one group, in particular, in a concert lineup--people are more or less expecting oldies only and nostalgia. I don't think that's what FM wants to do and I could see Lindsey (in particular, but hopefully Stevie as well. I think Mick and John might go with the flow) definitely being vocal about all their efforts to reinvent themselves and showing what they can do in THIS century.
I like the Eagles--but have they done real new material--as a group--as in a whole CD--any time in the recent past? (I have been so focused on FM--I've never even bothered to check;-)
I do know the Eagles charged a lot of money for their last tour (as did FM) and if I'm spending all that cash, I'd prefer to have my Fleetwood Mac undiluted :laugh:

[TwistedGypsy]

I would sell myself on the street to see that! :laugh:

J/K about the above but if it was guranteed then maybe.... :rolleyes:

That's disgusting

[Gypsy-Rhiannon]

I must be in the minority then. I would love to see FM and the Eagles together! Love them both! But then I was also happy to see Stevie in stage with Sheryl when I know plenty of fans weren't. I dread to think what the tickets would cost tho

[Kelly]

I remember Linds commenting very briefly about this in some SYW promotion. He sounded less than enthused and spoke about it in what sounded like a sarcastic tone to me. He said something about "people" wanting them to tour with the Eagles, I got the impression he was talking about the white shirts at the label. I seriously doubt he would ever agree to it. In fact all their egos are so big, Henley's first and foremost, I just can't see any of them agreeing to it.

Yeah, but the majority of fans who bitched about Stevie and Sheryl did it for completely asinine and ridiculous reasons. They were just mad because Sheryl Crow was involved in Stevie's music and that it wasn't just Stevie 24/7. None of them even wanted to give her any credit for working wonders on Stevie's album. I shudder to think what it would have been like if the whole album was in the hands of John Shanks.

Yet they all rushed out to buy "C'mon C'mon" because Stevie was on the title song and was inaudible on Diamond Road. :laugh:

:nod: I recall this as well. I think there's more of a chance of Lindsey's solo album actually coming out (Ha!) than an Eagles/Mac tour. I think Lindsey is cordial because he's older now but can you actually picture him having to deal with Henley on a daily basis? How would they agree on billing...would Fleetwood Mac be listed first...Eagles...how many songs would each group play...etc. Hell, Fleetwood Mac fought amongst themselves making SYW and i'm sure, touring as well. Can you imagine two bands bringing all of their issues together?

I can see us asking John this in the Q&A and him laughing his ass off at the prospect of them all being on stage together.

Don. Stevie. Lindsey. singing Life In The Fast Lane :lol:

And in mine too! :laugh:

I certainly wouldn't pay to see that.

It strikes me as being a demeaning money making exercise.

Fleetwood Mac are better than that.

I loved seeing Sheryl with Stevie. But then again, I am a big Sheryl fan. She isn't the most dynamic stage presence on earth movement wise, but her voice sounds great and she is so damned attractive I can barely stand it. I just love looking at her :lol:

I can't say that about any of the Eagles !
